  • CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT
    CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT The 2003 PMT outlined the actions needed to bring the MBTA transit system into a state of good repair (SGR). It evaluated and prioritized a number of specific enhancement and expansion projects proposed to improve the system and better serve the regional mobility needs of Commonwealth residents. In the inter- vening years, the MBTA has funded and implemented many of the 2003 PMT priorities. The transit improvements highlighted in this chapter have been accomplished in spite of the unsus- tainable condition of the Authority’s present financial structure. A 2009 report issued by the MBTA Advisory Board1 effectively summarized the Authority’s financial dilemma: For the past several years the MBTA has only balanced its budgets by restructuring debt liquidat- ing cash reserves, selling land, and other one-time actions. Today, with credit markets frozen, cash reserves depleted and the real estate market at a stand still, the MBTA has used up these options. This recession has laid bare the fact that the MBTA is mired in a structural, on-going deficit that threatens its viability. In 2000 the MBTA was re-born with the passage of the Forward Funding legislation.This legislation dedicated 20% of all sales taxes collected state-wide to the MBTA. It also transferred over $3.3 billion in Commonwealth debt from the State’s books to the T’s books. In essence, the MBTA was born broke. Throughout the 1990’s the Massachusetts sales tax grew at an average of 6.5% per year. This decade the sales tax has barely averaged 1% annual growth.

Saunders Tim Czerwienski, Project Manager Tim Ian Mitchell Boston Planning & Development Agency Co-Chairs One City Hall Square Janine Commerford Boston, MA 02201-1007 Greg Galer John Hemenway Subject: One Kenmore Square Hotel Draft Project Impact Report (DPIR) Peter Shilland Amelia Croteau Comments Kaira Fox Aaron Michlewitz Dear Mr. Czerwienski: Angie Liou Ed Flynn Christopher Cook Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the One Kenmore Square Hotel Draft Project Impact Report (DPIR) located in the Fenway. The Executive Director Boston Groundwater Trust was established by the Boston City Council Christian Simonelli to monitor groundwater levels in sections of Boston where the integrity of building foundations is threatened by low groundwater levels and to make recommendations for solving the problem. Therefore, my comments are limited to groundwater related issues. Although the Project is not located in the Groundwater Conservation Overlay District (GCOD) established under Article 32 of the Zoning Code, the document states that the Project will comply with the standard to the maximum extent practicable. Compliance with the GCOD requires both the installation of a recharge system and a demonstration that the project cannot cause a reduction in groundwater levels on site or on adjoining lots. As stated in the document the Project Area is not located within the GCOD however, it is immediately adjacent to the GCOD boundary. There are a number of piling supported buildings in the immediate vicinity of this boundary.
